Show notes

Colin is joined by legendary sportswriter Ian O’Connor to talk about all things Knicks. They start with Colin’s theory that the Knicks began their resurgence after owner James Dolan stepped away to build the Sphere and became more distracted and hands-off from running the team and letting GM Leon Rose build the roster (3:15). They discuss the reasons behind Mike Brown’s success as head coach and why he’s been able to succeed when past coaches have failed, and the change he made to the role of Karl-Anthony Towns (8:30). They examine the Knicks supporting case and why their high effort, tough nosed style of basketball feels a bit like Villanova…but yet, it works (13:00). They discuss Jalen Brunson’s incredibly rare team friendly contract with the Knicks, and why he knew that ending the Knicks title drought would be worth far more than a few million dollars on his contract (17:30). Finally, they discuss the future of the eastern conference with the Knicks and Celtics at the top, and why this is the best year for the Knicks to win it all (25:00).
